Temperatures could fall to the mid-30s, with wind chills as low as 25 degrees, posing risks to people, pets, and plants.
According to the National Weather Service, this will be the coldest night of the week for much of the region. Patchy frost is likely, especially in northern areas. Residents should protect sensitive plants and ensure outdoor pets have warm shelter. Frost risks decrease by mid-morning Tuesday as temperatures gradually rise.
Hazardous marine conditions will persist today, with gusty northwest winds up to 30 mph along the coast. Beachgoers face a moderate risk of rip currents. Swimmers should exercise caution or avoid entering the water entirely.
